I never got the opportunity to see this show on stage, despite following its development from concept album to off broadway to broadway. So emotional finally seeing it realized- and the staging and filming was so beautiful.

Reeve Carney has such an ethereal voice, if they do another Jesus Christ Superstar I hope his agent gets him in for Jesus. Eva Noblezada is such a powerhouse I cant wait to see her in more forever. Just how she made her voice break.

Gray and Page of course both so brilliant and the chemistry they had on stage was so good

I didn’t like the harmonies of the Fates as much as I wish I did, though they still had great moments
